I remember seeing the password with you, but I don't remember to what. Let me figure out wtf I did, and we will get it recovered for you.

The login page comes up with the username as root and a password. I think the password is supplied by Firefox that saved it from some previous login.* In any event it does not work, so I tried supplying 'admin,' 'Admin,' 'jjj,' 'JJJ,' and several other possibilities. For the password I tried leaving it blank, or any of several variants that I use for devices, plus I tried a nonsense password that was written on the label on the side of the device. The label also said: DIR-860L P/N BIR860LLNA ... B1 MAC 48:EE:0C:68:C2:F0 Password ********** Mydlink No.: ********* Searching on support pages reveals that the username is supposed to be 'admin' or 'Admin' with a blank password, but they all assume the default D-Link firmware, not OpenWRT. I didn't check for it but I also assume there is a button on the device to be actuated with a paper clip to reset the device, but that might wipe out OpenWRT. I found the OpenWRT web page, but no help there. The login page also has a Reset button, but it appears to do nothing. *Firefox helpfully saves passwords, but some web pages won't accept the password if it is supplied by Firefox, e.g., PayPal and my bank, among others. I have to manually type in the password each time. And why would I want to log in to the admin page if it is working fine? Because I have a Brother laser printer that is giving me grief and I failed to put a label on it with its IP address (which is my normal practice for printers). Any suggestions welcome. :) _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
